^^^It's OK. I haven't bought a scope for it so I'm limited to 3x shooting with my ACOG. I haven't been able to determine exactly how accurate it can be.

Still it's hard to be the AR-15, it's so much more compact than the 556 despite the 556 being much simpler firearm.

Still listed as not MA or CA compliant on Sig's site so I would say it is still a no go in the great land of Commifornia.

Gets heavy....sheesh go out, buy a Mosin-Nagant M44 and shoot it for a while to build up some upper body strength!

^^^You panty, try shooting an HK91, the thing is pushing 10# without anything on it. Throw on a scope and a fully loaded 20 round mag...........

Might as well shoot your enemies with spit darts than anger them with that round.

Piercing Kevlar isn't that great a challenge for rifle rounds, and that's what the 5.7 essentially is.

I wouldn't mind one, but the cost of them is way out of line for the type pistol it is. You can pick up a high end 1911 for what the FiveSeven goes for used.

I'm not sure that the 5.7 round that is designed to penetrate body armor is available to the general public. However that sucker has a serious ammo capacity since those rounds are about mosquito sized.

AP rounds are sold only to military and LEO.

I always carry 10 AP rounds with me wherever I go. They're called my fingers.

Your fingers barely penetrated 750s girlish defenses; they stand no chance against body armor.

Girlish defenses??? There is no WMD known to man that could penetrate that "eek spider" defense.
